Alone

Jennifer Paige©1994

Alone
Sitting and watching the city lights
    Blink and glitter
Amazed how something so ugly can be so beautiful
    Progress--
A brown cloud that shatters the peace of the land
    Reality--
Breaking the silence, polluting the air,
Murdering my species slowly
Retreating from the noise, chaos, violence,
A sanctuary where peace is restored, Silence returns,
    A species saved
Clear mountain air lends solitude and a view of the
Only beauty of progress
